I Can (Guá ē-hiáu) is a joyful Taiwanese-language picture book that invites adults and children to read, play, and laugh together. Through rhythmic, repetitive yet delightfully varied sentences, it celebrates three favorite childhood activities—drawing, singing, and dancing. Each lively scene bursts with animals children love or often encounter—whales breaching in the sea, butterflies flitting through the air, elegant egrets, mischievous monkeys, and more. Each scene is brought to life with playful adjectives and action-packed verbs. The musical text is irresistible to read aloud.
Beloved illustrator Heidi Huang, known for capturing the magic of childhood, fills the pages with her fresh, gentle style. A charming cast of recurring animals—cats, dogs, pigs, geese— and bright-eyed children make every page a delight to explore.
So open the book and join the fun. Will you draw? Sing? Dance? Or maybe…play clapping games with a cheeky little monkey?
